LYRICS

This little piece of gold is already feeling dull
And it ain’t the band that’s getting old
Haven’t picked a date, haven't picked a place
We’re just picking fights and slamming doors

It’s gonna kill me either way I guess
But which one is gonna break my heart less

What if when I leave you become the man I need
Just in time to find some other girl who gets you on one knee
But what if when I stay, we say I do and things don’t change
And all the hurt I'm hurting now just stays the same
There's no way to know, yeah that's the thing
Do I take your last name, or take off this ring

Makeup doesn’t hide trading sleep to cry
Another round, and around we go
Forever feels so hard, before it even starts
The highlight of my life ain't supposed to feel this low, but

What if when I leave you become the man I need
Just in time to find some other girl who gets you on one knee
But what if when I stay, we say I do and things don’t change
And all the hurt I'm hurting now just stays the same
There's no way to know, yeah that's the thing
Do I take your last name, or take off this ring
It’s gonna kill me either way I guess
But which one is gonna break my heart less

What if when I leave you become the man I need
Just in time to find some other girl who gets you on one knee
But what if when I stay, we say I do and things don’t change
And all the hurt I'm hurting now just stays the same
There's no way to know, yeah that's the thing
Do I take your last name, or take off this ring

If he isn't the man you need right now, he likely won't be the man you need in 10 years. People can change, but most people cannot do adequate self-reflection to make those changes. It's a long, hard road to make those changes. But if he thought you were worth it, he would make the attempts obvious! It took me many years to realize this myself! I wish the best for everyone who can relate to this song.

Julia, keep dreaming your dream because you are helping so many of us on your journey!

This song needs to be on the radio!! It's so well written and beautifully sang. I feel like so many people can relate

[Vista-fgij]

I was married thinking we'd make it through anything together, and throwing my wedding band in the trash after 8 years of abuse was the best and worst feeling. Thank you for the song!

[destinygirley]

*goosebumps* Thank you for being brave enough to sing the words so many of us cant bring ourselves to say

[anthonyveritas]

I was married for about 4 years with her for 10 years and the day i left her is one of the scariest, happiest, hurtful, and celebrated day in my life. I met my new wife a few years after that break up and now im happier than ever. Stay strong and we're here for you. Love the song

❤.. sometimes the best thing is to walk away. . I to thought the fighting and slamming doors would stop.. but my feelings don't matter, and when I try to talk.. he says I'm arguing 🤣 😢...but as my mother always says. 1 day at a time hun..1 day!!!

Keep up the amazing music. ❤

[rae]

Just listened to the sample on insta...im so pumped for this song ❤

[lougreen]

A poem I wrote about taking off my ring…
My ring, once a symbol of love and devotion,
Now lies forgotten in the penny jar's commotion.
It used to sparkle and shine on my finger,
But now it's lost its luster, a mere lingering.

I thought it held value, worth more than gold,
But now I see it for what it truly holds.
Just a trinket, a token of a love long gone,
A memory of a time that has moved on.

In the end, it's just a piece of metal and stone,
No longer a treasure, no longer my own.
So into the penny jar it goes, without a fuss,
For that's all it was worth, just like us.

[chrishoffman]

Beautiful and poignant song. Thank you for sharing

[melaniemccarty]

I just want to say that you are so amazing and I love your music. Remember you are brave and strong and you are enough. I am happy that you know your worth and didn’t settle for less than you deserve. ❤️❤️❤️

[kensmith]

Needs are usually hidden to the nth degree. Define your needs. This takes a great deal of thinking. I will give you the basics. Women need a reassurance hug daily. The money, home, and cars are wants. If you focus on your needs, then you will be happy. Focus on the wants and you will never be happy.

That was a great sounding piece! The sound man did a great job mixing the voice to be heard and understood. Be careful how much you let those mentors direct you into famous! They don't have to deal with the fan insanity. The negative causes famous to become a prison. There is a way out of that prison, but it requires you to be seen in public. Garth did this to reduce the local impact on his freedom. Those mentors will separate you from everything you need to remain free, so be aware of the problems and build strong boundaries in your life!

[dedicatedmother]

Cannot wait to hear the full song because it will be on repeat. I love your music. Keep your head up and you're doing an amazing job with your songs ❤❤

[Jesus_isLord_andGod]

Lord Jesus please heal this young woman's broken heart and feel her with your LOVE. Amen😢❤❤❤

[RyanParnell-rz]

[suebluesky]

I just love your voice but most of all the passion you sing your songs to us! Thank you for sharing such a difficult part of your life with all of us ❤

[JacquelineCooper-mtgy]

This song makes u sad and reminise puts u in deep thoughts and maybe even drop a few tears!!!

[mariesipes]

So many can relate! As my wedding got closer I felt myself not caring and went through with it and went on to have children then got divorced! Looking back I wouldn’t change the outcome because you learn as you grow older and I have my children that I’m more than grateful for!

[junbum]

I saw this in IG. I just cried 😢
